Hi All
TJ, thanks for those tests.
Opening a port for Random is an old habit that allows Input or output.
Probably dropping that will mean the same result.
What can I say Old habits die hard
Your comment on the buffer is one that I will definitely take on board.
Had not tried that. At the rate
The serial port is opened in FreeBasic with :
Open Com COM1:38400,n,8,1,cs0,ds0,cd0,rs For Random As #CP
FreeBasic doesn't support FIFO, and most likely no IRQ.
try
Open Com COM1:600,n,8,1,cs0,ds0,cd0,rs For Random As #CP
and see if that changes your problem.

sorry, not true.

anyway, try

The mouse is a USB, but with a usb to PS2 adapter works on the PS@
port.
I want to clarify this again, since some people who may have valid ideas on
things to try may simply be throwing up their hands and saying, This is a USB
problem, and I don't know anything about USB.
Your mouse is not

I should also point out that the combination USB/PS2 mice were pretty
common back when USB first came out (mid 1990's), but not so much any
more. Most modern mice only do USB and not PS2. If you try to put one of
those USB-to-PS2 adapters on a pure USB mouse, it

Let me make sure I understand the mouse/keyboard setup correctly. I think you
are saying that you are using a USB mouse, but you have it plugged in at the
end of a PS2 Y cable. If that's the case, it's not actually a USB mouse. It's
probably a mouse that can either do USB or PS2, and it's
Hi All
Many thanks for the replies.
I am using a third party library CGUI to develop and draw the GUI.
But I am fairly confident that it uses Interupt / event driven control of
the mouse.
The mouse is a USB, but with a usb to PS2 adapter works on the PS@ port.
The ctmouse that I first used was
Venturing an guess of an IRQ conflict with rs485 and the usb hardware?

IRQ4 is the default for COM1 (and COM3) ever since the IBM PC, likewise
IRQ3 is assigned by default to COM2 and COM4.
This is a BIOS/Industry standard ever this the original IBM PC,

Hi All
Have a usb mouse with usb/ps2 converter on a Y ps2 cable.
This cable is supplied by the Industrial cpu board supplier, and it allows a
ps2 mouse
on one leg of the Y, and a ps2 keyboard on the other.
Pure FreeDos install on a booting compact flash.
The installation has cutemouse installed
